Hinduism is one of the oldest religion in the world, despite this, the group is not well organized and it has no single system and approach which can be used to teach its values. They do not have a set of rules which they can follow just like the Ten Commandments.

Hinduism, Religious Texts and the Afterlife Hinduism’s sacred texts are known as the Vedas which are comprised of four ancient books written from 1200 BC to 100 AD.

Every day, Dalits are butchered, assaulted, abused, raped, lynched, shot or openly mutilated without considering any consequences of the offenders.
